Vicious sicillian flower monster
When visiting the ‘Valley of the Temples’ on a warm summers day in Sicily, I was looking out some wildlife and came across this amazing insect. It was so large that at first glance I thought it was a mouse or rat, as it skittered across the floor, but to my amazement it was a beautiful, but vicious looking, entomological monster.
